Abstract
|
|
|
|
Postoperative gas-forming bacterial infection is very rare. However, it can be a life threatening problem if not properly addressed. Authors treated a patient who was infected with gas forming Escherichia coli after both knee arthroplasty with incision and drainage, as well as arthroscopic synovectomy and antibiotics. Herein, we report a case of postoperative gas-forming bacterial infection with literature review.
